I have a ring that is absolutely beautiful but I'm not sure if it's opal or moonstone. The reason I'm asking is because my necklace is moonstone but the store clerk said that the ring may have been opal but wasn't absolutely sure. Is there anyway to tell?
Opal is a mineraloid gel which is deposited at a relatively low temperature and may occur in the fissures of almost any kind of rock, being most commonly found with limonite, sandstone, rhyolite, and basalt.
Moonstone is typically a potassium aluminium silicate. The most common moonstone is of the mineral adularia. The plagioclase feldspar oligoclase also produces moonstone specimens. Its name is derived from a visual effect, or sheen, caused by light reflecting internally in the moonstone from layer inclusion of different feldspars.
